3D printers aren't meant to replace injection molding. These aren't mutually exclusive manufacturing methods. 3D printers are fantastic for rapid prototyping. Injection molding is fantastic for mass productions of finished designs.

Although the part about printing keychains and showing off at makerfaires is pretty funny. Hype is crazy and a lot of the people hyped up have no idea how limited DIY/hobby printing is.
